Another strategy is to call the company, ask for the top person in 
technical sales, and give them a spiel about doing a write-up for 
such-and-such "Green" publication, after which you will return the items 
undamaged.

Many companies are open to this kind of free nearly-free publicity.

Hey - one ideal application for these would be as a battery replacement 
for the electric bicycle, right?
